Eight, the opening
Zheng Wan sat at the desk tiredly, her eyes closed, and her hand on her forehead. Raising God. Qiu Qi on the side carefully cleaned up the bed.
"Qiu Qi, how did you say such a thing happened today? The pillar collapsed inexplicably, but I had just observed it carefully, and there was no trace on the pillar, not like it was deliberate. β
"The slave will go and listen in the next few days." Qiu Qi did not stop his work.
Zheng Wan opened her eyes, "Qiu Qi, Qiu Qi, you are really a lucky star begging for in autumn." After saying this, his face turned a little pale.
"Second brother, redeem her, let's take this child in. There's a backbone, I like it. "The memory goes back to many years ago, the first time I saw Qiu Qi. A child covered in injuries escaped from the hook bar, chased by the thugs in the hook bar and had no way out, but he was still stubborn.
"If she wants to, take it home." Zheng Pingsheng stopped the thug's brutality and gave the money bag to the bustard, "I ransomed her." β
"Would you like to go back with me?"
"I do. I'm willing to follow Miss. The child's eyes were smiling.
"What's your name?"
"No name, no surname. Miss can call it whatever she wants. β
"Second brother, you redeemed her, and you will give her a name."
"Autumn beggars. A blessed star begging for in autumn. Zheng Pingsheng looked at Zheng Wan, "Be a lucky star for my little sister." β
"Miss." Qiu Qi stopped what he was doing, looked at Zheng Wan worriedly, and thought of the second son again.
"It doesn't matter. Someone's coming. A smile rose at the corner of Zheng Wan's mouth.
"Wan'er." Zheng Nangong suddenly appeared in Zheng Wan's courtyard and called outside the house, Zheng Wan stood up and greeted him. "Father! How did you get here? Wan'er had seen her father. β
"Your Excellency." Qiu Qi followed closely behind and saluted respectfully.
"Qiu Qi, you go down and prepare tea. Remember to use the tea in that little box. Father loved it. Zheng Wan turned her head slightly, waved her hand, and sent Qiu Qi away.
"No." Qiu Qi saluted Zheng Nangong again and went to prepare tea.
"Father." Zheng Wan was respectful, "Father, what's the urgency of coming so late?" β
Zheng Nangong looked at Zheng Wan carefully, squinting slightly, making people unable to see the deep meaning. It took a long time to break the silence, "I heard that there was an accident in Yundeguan today, are you okay?" β
"Thank you father for remembering that Wan'er was protected by the ancestors of the Zheng family and was safe and sound. Worried my father. Zheng Wan responded quietly, but there was a hint of joy in her heart, it seemed that the opportunity to visit the prison was coming. She wouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to think that her father was really here to care about her.
"That'll be fine." Zheng Nangong nodded slightly, "Wan'er, our Zheng family was killed by traitors a few days ago, you also know, what do you think?" Zheng Nangong turned around and turned his back to Zheng Wan, which made people feel nervous.
Why did my father mention it again? Isn't his father still blaming Wan'er for not knowing the truth? Zheng Wan showed an aggrieved look, with a hint of crying in her voice, "Wan'er already knew that she was wrong, didn't Liang Chu's conspiracy break?" Wasn't this traitor all solved by the eldest brother himself? β
"I don't blame you."
"Father, eldest brother has always been the pride of the Zheng family. The father is here, the eldest brother is here, how can our Zheng family be easily brought down. There was pride in his tone.
"Less sycophancy. The one outside the city is not a problem, the woman from the Tingwei Division is the problem now. Zheng Nangong said in a deep voice.
Zheng Nangong in the moonlight has a hazy feeling. Zheng Wan watched from behind her, suppressing the anger that kept rising in her heart. The one outside the city isn't a problem! He is your son, the tiger poison does not eat children, Zheng Nangong, you are ruthless enough. If you treat others as pawns, I will let you be pawns too.
"Women?" Zheng Wan pondered for a moment, "But the woman who panicked and claimed to be the wife of the second brother?" There was some surprise in his tone, and then he became angry, "Isn't she arrested now?" This matter is clearly Liang Chu's frame-of. Kill her. This woman is very vicious. β
"Kill? Wan'er, what you think is still too simple. Zheng Nangong shook his head, "She is like a stinger, although it is small, it will also affect our Zheng family." β
"Mo is not Emperor Qin......" Zheng Wan hesitated.
Zheng Nangong turned around, "Don't think about it, Your Majesty wants to find out the details of Liang Chu through her, and besides, she is still pregnant, killing her at this time seems to be not benevolent enough for Daqin." β
"What my father said is that Your Majesty is truly merciful." Zheng Wan felt a burst of ridicule in her heart, and she was indeed very respectful on the surface. "And what is Your Majesty going to do?"
Zheng Nangong stared at Zheng Wan tightly, "Wan'er, do you think she is hiding a secret?" "You
"Since it's a cool person, no matter how much, it should still be of some use."
"Can you pry her mouth open?"
"Me? Father! Zheng Wan looked at Zheng Nangong in astonishment and said slowly, "Father said it was funny." Wan'er is just a woman, where does she know this. Besides, that's the Tingwei Division, aren't they the best at torture? I think there must be a way for adults. β
"Coercing confessions is nothing, and it is the best policy to surrender without a fight. Because you're a woman, you're more suitable. Our Zheng family has been working for Daqin for generations, and as a member of the Zheng family, this is a rare opportunity. If this is done, Your Majesty will reward you with great reward. At that time, you will naturally have what you want. Those who once looked down on you will not dare to be disrespectful to you. β
So you know everything. Turning a blind eye, Zheng Wan asked timidly, "Is this Your Majesty's will?" β
Zheng Nangong patted Zheng Wan on the shoulder. "That's what he wants."
"Since His Majesty and Father both hope like this, Wan'er will take this matter on her own. I should do my best, for the Zheng family, for Daqin. Zheng Wan didn't say anything more, her heart was full of joy, and all the plans were under control.
Zheng Nangong nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, this is the style of our Zheng family." Thou hast rested earlier, and thou hast been frightened today. β
"No. Worried my father. β
"By the way, today's events have alarmed the national teacher. Su Qin is still at the sacrificial altar. β
"It's so serious? The national teacher blessed Daqin, and it was also hard work. Let's hope everything is worry-free. β
"Rest." Zheng Nangong held his hand behind him and left directly.
"Wan'er sends off her father." Staring at the distant figure, the hanging heart finally let go, the third brother really persuaded his father that this game of chess had started. Second brother, you must bless me and your children.
"Miss, is your Excellency gone?" Qiu Qi entered the house with freshly brewed tea.
Zheng Wan took the tea and took a sip slowly, "Next time put less tea, this is the hour, it shouldn't be too strong, my father won't like it." β
"No. Autumn beggars will pay attention. β
"You have to hurry up on that before, so be careful. Prepare some clothes and dishes tomorrow, lighter, and then boil the tonics. Remember to pack it in a large food box. Zheng Wan put it in the teacup, "We are going to the Tingwei Mansion and meet people." β
"No."
"That money is more than to go and find out. See what it does. β
"No."
